Running Water The myths say that vampires can not cross running water. This is only partially true. We can cross running water how else do you suppose we psi-vampires have spread all over the world.
We psi-vampires definitely loved the invention of the bridge *smiles*!! The truth of this is that water grounds us psi-vampires or shorts us out like anything electrical will short out if you throw it in water. We can cross running water whenever we wish it just makes us uncomfortable. We do go swimming in ponds or pools but we prefer not to swim in the ocean unless it is after dark. We do things that makes us uncomfortable simply so that they will have no power over us or control our lives in anyway, besides it would not do to well to let our possible enemies know what we feared or avoided and why. We do however use water to focus our energies especially for those of us that practice witchcraft of any form. If I am too hyper to sleep I will take a hot shower to even out or dampen my energies. Newly awakened psi-vampires will tend to avoid running water so people will not notice their or fear and dislike of it and so that they don't realize that it makes us uncomfortable and we (newly awakened) do not know why it does this to us. Most of us will admit that we don't like large bodies of water but none of us will admit to you that it is running water that we hate for fear that people will either think we are weird or know that we are psi-vampires. |
Sunlight In 1922 F.W.Murnau invented that vampires burst into flames when we come into contact with direct sunlight for his movie Nosferatu. This is not true.
The truth about the myth is that we tend to be nocturnal and love to go out at night when we don't have to shield our eyes from sunlight. We being nocturnal have sensitive eyes. Mostly it is just us psi-vampires that do feel physical discomfort and we do burn easily but that is a sunburn and not burst into fire. Read my section on tools for sunlight and see the cures or treatments we use to get around the problems associated with sunlight. |

Crosses Crosses are supposed to make us cower in fear and some believe they actually burn us. First of all how would you know that that particular vampire is a Christian or Catholic? They could be Jewish or Muslim or Satanic or Native American...well you get the picture.
The truth about this myth is we feel uncomfortable in any church because all of the worshippers focusing on one thing like their cross or minister leaves latent energy laying around that is unfocused and creates ley lines. We feel drained and hungry if we remain inside of any church for too long but this is not because we are evil. Some think that we are abominations because of this but let me point out for all the religous people out there that God created everything and that includes us so we are no more evil than a wolf or cougar is. God created us for a reason and who is to say that they have the knowledge or the right to second guess God. The cross itself doesn't hurt us in any way unless it is made of silver (silver is an inhibitor) and we are wearing it, then it weakens our abilities; however, we do have a problem looking at gold. We will look at anything but the gold and when someone is wearing a gold cross we avoid them, but this cross would not harm us. I HAVE seen cases where a silver or gold cross blessed by a priest has burned a vampire that tried to wear it for more than a few minutes. I don't know if this is a psychological thing or a physical thing. |
Garlic The myths say that no vampire can stand the smell of garlic (I don't know that many nonvampires that can stand the smell of garlic either) and that garlic is put around all those whom it is believed was attacked by a vampire.
The truth about this myth is that we psi-vampires (it has no affect on awakened humans [one of the ways to tell the difference between one of us and the half breeds]) can go near garlic and it will not seriously hurt us. We can not eat the garlic because it thins the blood and we already have low blood pressure and or anemia. It does however also break down whatever it is in our blood that carries oxygen so that we actually can have something similar to an asthma attack (even if we don't have asthma) and feel like our insides are burning like you would from eating spicy food. When the juice or oil of garlic touches my skin it feels like I was just burned and I get a small red rash where it touched me but it goes away within minutes if I wash it off. |
